    Ok so after fitting:

    Modified Knuckles
    Modified LCA's (30mm)
    Japspeed steering arms
    Japspeed super lock tension rods
    Offset rack spacers

    My passenger wheel sticks out about 1.5" - 2" more than the drivers at it's central point e.g. where the wheel bolts to the hub.

    I might be having a blonde moment but I can't see how this is possible?

    All arms, etc are the same length (albeit they need alignment doing) so how is this possible?

    Even after alignment there can't be enough adjustment to move the centre point of the hub inward (or outward on the drivers side) is there? Something else must be wrong? I should try sort this before alignment right?

    Any help appreciated...

    Looks like to much toe out on one side, try widing the track rod in see what it looks like, then get alignment.

    All sorted.

    One side was pivoted about 1/2" all way in, other was 1/2" all way out (where knuckle meets the coilover). Surprising what difference it made!
